However, no matter how much Ai Xiaoxia is a housewife, Jiang Lirong still has the confidence, because her daughter-in-law is a nurse in the township hospital. She cannot instigate them, but she still has to suppress them.

Thinking of this, Jiang Lirong rolled her eyes at Ai Xiaoxia, and then said to Li Shaofen: "Your daughter-in-law is incomparable to ours. She has no job, no knowledge, and no rules at all. This person is really doomed. Look at your family's Jing Shen, what's the use of being capable? The daughter-in-law you married is just good at talking, but in fact, isn't she still not presentable?"

Li Shaofen was indeed a tongue-tied person. She was angry but could not say anything. Her hands were shaking with anger. Then she managed to say, "Our Xiaoxia is fine. Anyway, I am satisfied."

Ai Xiaoxia also understood her mother-in-law's character, and knew that this taciturn mother-in-law could say this to really protect herself.

She said to Jiang Lirong, "Aunt, what is your purpose in coming here today? Are you trying to sow discord between our families? Or are you trying to show off that your family is better off than ours? If it's to sow discord, then I guess you have no hope. Our family is very united. If it's to show off, let me put it bluntly, your whole family combined is not as good as one Jing Shen in my family. Of course, I'm not as simple as you think. It's too early to compare yourself with me now. You will regret your ignorance today in the future."

Jiang Lirong naturally didn't believe what Ai Xiaoxia said. Her son couldn't compare to Lu Jingshen, but her daughter-in-law was definitely better than Ai Xiaoxia. She snorted coldly, "You're telling the truth. You haven't even graduated from junior high school, and you want to compare yourself to my daughter-in-law? It's not as simple as I thought. You think you're really that great, don't you?"

Ai Xiaoxia smiled and said, "Then let's wait and see. Why bother with a quick rant? Wouldn't it be more satisfying to let reality speak for itself?"

Jiang Lirong looked at Ai Xiaoxia's eyes, and her heart suddenly tightened. She seemed to be less confident. The determination in Ai Xiaoxia's eyes was too obvious. Could it be that she really had some ability?

Jiang Lirong doesn't know yet that Ai Xiaoxia's family is going to the market. She has been at her daughter's home in Santaizi Village for the past few days. This time she hasn't even returned home, but has come here to show off.

Jiang Lirong felt she needed to go home and sort out her thoughts, so she said to Lu Guojiu, "Second brother, your family hasn't had an easier time since you married your daughter-in-law. Instead, each one of them is more ignorant of the rules than the other. If Mother knew about this, she would be heartbroken. You're also unfilial, causing her so much worry. Well, it's not all your fault. Who made you so unlucky? I worked so hard to raise a son who is a university student, but in the end, he married a daughter-in-law like this. It's really laughable."

Lu Guojiu was so angry at Jiang Lirong that he started coughing. It took a while for him to stop. "We have done nothing to offend our conscience. My daughter-in-law is also very good. Even if my mother comes back, what can it matter? Sister-in-law, if there is nothing else, I won't see you off. Goodbye."

He is actually not a cowardly person. Before he got sick, he always protected his wife and children. But after the major operation, he would gasp if he talked too much, so he really couldn't argue with others anymore.

Ai Xiaoxia didn't originally want to fight to the death with Jiang Lirong. After all, she had to consider the face of her parents-in-law. Of course, it was also because she was not a person who liked to compare with others.

But seeing Lu Guojiu so angry, what else is there to worry about? She was so protective of her family that she couldn't let them be bullied.

There was murderous intent in her smile, and she said to Jiang Lirong, "Aunt, I forgot to tell you that our Jing Shen is going to be promoted again. Your son and daughter-in-law will have a limit if they continue to climb up, but my Jing Shen is different. There is a lot of room for development. No matter how bad I am, I will have to move to the city in three months. By then, we will have a house in the city, and we will be city people. When Jing Yuan goes to high school in the future, our family may move to the city. You said that my dad has three brothers in total. My family and my uncle's family have all moved to the city, and only your family is still here. Don't you feel ashamed?"

She knew that her uncle Lu Guosheng had passed the entrance exam to study in the city in his early years and stayed there to work. After her uncle got married, her grandmother Zhang Fengying went there and seldom came back. She had seen her when she got married, and the old lady had a lot of things to do, but fortunately she lived far away and didn't see her often.

Jiang Lirong was completely stunned by Ai Xiaoxia's words, because she really lost. In order to grab the last bit of face, she said, "Then you don't have a job either."

Ai Xiaoxia continued with a sneer, "Not having a job doesn't mean I won't make money. Besides, even if I don't have a job, I can still be an official's wife, right? That's not a bad status, I quite like it. In the future, I'll have my own car, live in a villa, and be able to attend banquets whenever I want. I don't know how much higher-class I'll be than you guys. You really can't compare. I'm just lucky. Unlike your daughter-in-law, if she marries into your family, what will she be? The wife of a chef at the supply and marketing cooperative? I don't think there's such a title."

This time, Jiang Lirong was really pissed off by Ai Xiaoxia. She thought for a long time but couldn't think of how to refute. Her face turned purple with anger. She snorted and left without saying anything.

Watching Jiang Lirong leave, Lu Guojiu burst out laughing: "Xiaoxia is really quick to speak, much better than your mother and I. We have rarely had the upper hand in arguments with your aunt."

Ai Xiaoxia helped Lu Guojiu into the house: "I didn't mean to give her any face, but she was scratching her nose and face, and Jing Shen was not at home. I can't let you and mom be bullied. Anyway, people like her are shameless. I will confront her every time she comes next time."

Li Shaofen covered her mouth and laughed several times, unable to hold it back. "This is the first time I've seen my sister-in-law like that. This is the first time I've felt so relieved in all these years."

At this time, Lu Jingyuan flew into the house: "Mom and Dad, is my aunt here again? What is she doing? Is my dad angry?"

He had just gone to a classmate's house to talk about repeating a grade. When he came back and saw Jiang Lirong returning from her own house, he was so scared that he ran in quickly.

After saying that, he looked at the three people in the room with smiling faces, blinked his eyes and thought for a while: "Fortunately, my aunt didn't come to our house. I was scared to death." As he said that, he wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Ai Xiaoxia found Lu Jingyuan amusing and teased him, "Auntie is here to pick a fight with us."

Lu Jingyuan rubbed his face anxiously: "What? Is my aunt irritating me again? Then why is my dad still smiling? Is he mad?"

Li Shaofen slapped Lu Jingyuan on the back and said, "Are you stupid? What are you saying? Your aunt was pissed off by your sister-in-law. She probably won't dare to come for a while."

Ai Xiaoxia was used to seeing Lu Jingyuan being beaten. This kid really deserved a beating, but he was not annoying and was quite interesting.

Lu Jingyuan's face was smeared like a cat, and he tilted his head to look at Ai Xiaoxia in confusion: "Sister-in-law, you can even do it to my aunt?"

Ai Xiaoxia nodded: "We haven't done anything today. If we do, it will take her even longer to come back."

Lu Jingyuan curled his lips at first: "Boasting." But after saying that, he still felt very grateful to Ai Xiaoxia: "But you are still quite amazing."

Ai Xiaoxia smiled and said, "I'm much better."
